Rock Lobster: The Classical Version

The beauty of the internet is that anyone with a lot of time on their hands can rework old media into something new. Some of these video-music mash-ups take on a mesmerizing form. Case in point, YouTube user palaciorojooriginal created a classical version of the The B-52’sRock Lobster and edited clips from The Hitch-Hiker and The Stranger to create a weird but entrancing music video.

Just for fun, here is the original from the golden age of music videos!
